Yom HaAtzmaut was especially important and exciting this year, and you could feel that all throughout HALB. In Lev Chana, the classrooms were transformed into different cities in Israel, and the children took their passports, boarded their El Al flight, and landed in Ben Gurion Airport. They went through customs and then got to visit all the different cities around the school building with special activities in each one.
They ended the day with singing and dancing outside with Gary Wallin! In the evening, HALB had their Yom HaAtzmaut Eitan Katz concert and barbecue in the yard, and hundreds of parents, students, and staff joined for the celebration. In addition to the dancing, there were chesed tables set up with T’hilim and special projects for Israel. It was truly an incredible day!
